I’m considering buying one of these rifles. A Steyr Kropatschek 1886 8 mm. It should use a 8mmx60R case, if my research has been correct. It seems there are a lot of Portugaise rifles out there, but the cases are a little shorter. The 348 Winchester seems to be a good bet for the donner case, using 8mm Lebel dies to reshape it. There may be a difference in the case head. It may need to be rounded to fit properly. Has anyone had experience with this case and be willing to give advice?
Thanks
